Toilet turnstile includes secure cash box to hold the coins

Cornwall Council needs over a four-year period to save another £1 million, and is looking to sacrifice some or all of its public conveniences if it absolutely has to. The authority is involving all parish and town councils in the decision-making process in order to come up with the best possible solution to its financial problems. The council said that it recognised the importance of public toilets to residents and visitors to Cornwall, but had to explore all options.

Technology from Time and Attendance South West can aid a local authority like Cornwall in keeping its valuable public toilet services open with the use of our innovative turnstiles. The coin operated turnstiles help to pay for upkeep, etc, of the building, with the added benefit of preventing people from wandering into the toilets as they now have to pay for the privilege, or ‘spend a penny’. The coin mechanism can be programmed for virtually any combination of coins with a secure cash box to hold the coins.
